Forum Discussion Paper 2007 New Developments in Programme Models

This is the first in a series of discussion papers produced by Forum, which follows on from our research work on trends in International volunteering and co-operation in recent years. One of the key trends identified in this time has been the increased variation and diversification in the programmatic models that International Volunteer and Co-operation Organisations (IVCOs) use.

This paper aims to consider some of those models, what we can learn from those experiences and identify some challenges for the future.
